I have a 2000 XE 3.3L and I am at 131,000km or so and I have had no serious problems yet.......broke a mirror (damn tree mad ), had to remove some rattling heat sheilds.......thats about it.......oh, and the bumper corner and tail light the dump truck removed for me on a job site [Freak] ......still runs the same as when I bought it.......just keep changing the oil and checking your fluids like you should ........ and checking over the X everytime you get under it to do work.........

I can remeber growing up when all the old mans trucks (Datsun or Toyota) went to the grave with their original timing belts, and he wasnt easy on them by any means (me noether eek )......and they all had 250-300,000 kms on them, or more.....I read all you guys saying how important it is to replace things as Nissan specifies but we also have to remeber that Nissan wants us to spend our money on OEM parts at their prices and use their technicians.
